EXTENSION CORDS

• ALWAYS use a proper extension cord when operating this product. The cord needs to be properly wired and in good
• ALWAYS use an extension cord that is appropriately rated and of the proper gauge to carry the current this product will draw. A cord with an insufficient rating will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and cause overheating/damage.
• ALWAYS replace damaged extension cords or have it repaired by an authorized professional before use.
• ALWAYS protect extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, as well as damp/wet
• NEVER use more than ONE extension cord when operating this product and only have this product plugged into

As the distance from the power supply outlet increases, a lower-numbered gauge extension cord must be used. Using extension cords with inadequate AWG rating causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in a loss of power which can cause damage.

The smaller the wire gauge number, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14-gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16-gauge cord.

Minimum extension cord rating is shown in the following table:

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING : NEVER plug this product into a power source until assembly is complete.

• Before assembling, review the components diagram in Figure 1 below and the Parts List on page 6.
• Assemble the stand first and gradually add all other components. Then end with attaching the motor housing.
• Once the stand and motor are assembled, attach it to the main body of the saw using three long bolts, through the three elliptical openings (A) in the Upper Cover (Part #14).

NOTE : When installing the Motor Support Plate (Part #20), it must angle toward the front, otherwise the screw holes on the motor will not with the screw holes on motor support plate.

Ignore the holes on top of Part #19, as they serve no purpose.

• Before installing the blade cover and table, make sure to install the blade.
• Otherwise you will need to remove the blade cover and table to install the blade.

Once the base is assembled, attach the Drive Belt to the motor wheel (A) and to the Spindle Wheel (B) in the compartment directly above. If the two wheels do not line up properly, loosen the four bolts (C) holding the motor in place and slide the motor up or down, depending on need.

• Once the wheels line up, re-tighten the bolts. (Figure 2)
• When fully assembled, attach the rubber feet to the four corners of the stand.
• The feet will help reduce vibration when the saw is in use.

BLADE INSTALLATION & ADJUSTMENT

REMOVE THE TABLE:

• ALWAYS have the switch in the OFF position and disconnect the power supply before removing the blade, making any adjustments, changing accessories, cleaning, moving or storing this product.

Before attempting to install or replace the blade, the stainless steel table MUST be removed.To do this, remove the socket screws which attach the Table Support (D) to the table. Then, from the left side of the table, pull the table back and off. Once removed, place the table on a flat surface away from the machine to prevent damage while working with the blade. (Figure 3)

REMOVING THE BLADE COVER:

• Remove the socket screws on the side and back of the Cover (E) (Figure 4). Once removed, the cover will slip up and off, exposing the Drive Wheel and saw blade.
• Then remove the Blade Guard (F) and Upper Guard Plate (G) (Figure 5).

NOTE : For best results, stand to the left front of the table while performing the following steps. Turning the nut (H) counterclockwise lowers and decreases tension on the Drive Wheel (I) allowing you to adjust the alignment of the blade or to replace the blade entirely. (Figure 6) To center the blade on the wheel, loosen the two nuts (J) until the blade centers onto the Drive Wheel, and then re-tighten the nuts. Turning the wheel by hand makes moving the blade easier. Adjust the socket screw (K) to increase or decrease the angle on the Drive Wheel, helping center the blade on the wheel. Once the top part of the blade is set, the bottom will need adjustment. First, loosen the two socket screws to adjust the Guide Plates (L), making sure there is at least 1/32″ space between the edges of the guide plates and saw blade (M) (Figure 7)

MOUNTING A NEW BLADE:

• Use replacement blades (BSB-MBS) measuring 82” x 5/8” with 4 teeth per inch.
• To mount a new blade, begin by placing the upper portion of the blade onto the upper drive wheel, with the blade teeth facing down and toward you.
• While doing this, insert the blade in the slot located on the upper guide body (N). (Figure 8)
• Mount the lower half of the blade on the bottom drive wheel, making sure the blade goes in the slot (O) on the lower guide body. (Figure 9)
• Loosen the socket screw (P) to adjust the bearing (Q) so it is at least 1/32″ away from the blade. (Figure 10)
• To adjust the saw blade so that it is properly lined up in the cutting channel, first loosen the two socket screws (R). Loosening these screws allows the two small guides (S) to move toward or away from the blade, centering it in the channel.
• Loosening the socket screw (T) on the Blade Guide will move it toward or away from the blade. Finally, loosen the socket screw (U) to move the Bearing (V) toward or away from the blade. For best results, the bearing should be 1/32″ away from the blade. (Figure 11)

NEVER over tighten the blade as the excessive tension will cause overheating and increase the potential to brake the blade which can cause injury to the user/bystanders.

• Once these steps are complete, replace the blade cover, blade guard, table, table support and upper guard plate.
• To center the blade on the wheel, loosen the two nuts (J) until the blade centers onto the Drive Wheel, and then re-tighten the nuts. Turning the wheel by hand makes moving the blade easier.
• Adjust the socket screw (K) to increase or decrease the angle on the Drive Wheel, helping center the blade on the wheel. (Figure 6)
• Once the top part of the blade is set, the bottom will need adjustment. First, loosen the two socket screws to adjust the Guide Plates (L), making sure there is at least 1/32″ space between the edges of the guide plates and saw blade (M) (Figure 7)

Close and lock the front access door.

ASSEMBLING THE POWER SWITCH

WARNING : NEVER connect the product to a power supply before assembly is complete.

WARNING: NEVER use sharp tools when assembling the power switch, as they may damage the insulation on the wires.

If you are unfamiliar with electrical work, contact an authorized professional to perform the install. The O/－ power switch (O) is located in the upper corner of the Install holes. Attach the switch to the side of the steel stand using two nuts, bolts and washers (X).

NOTE : Be sure the button with O is at the top. (Figure 12)

• Power switch: ( O ) the red button is “OFF” and (－) the green button is “ON” – see Figure 12.5.
  

  • Take out the black wire and pass the black, white and green wires through the cable sleeve, then insert the cable sleeve into opening in the panel ( Figure 13 ).

• DO NOT tighten the cable sleeve before the wires are connected to the terminals.

• Insert the wire into the holes of switch cover. (Figure 13 is without the switch cover for instructional purposes only to show the wire connections).

Refer to Figure 13 and 13.5 for the following steps:

• Connect the black internal wire to the switch in terminal 1 and the other end of the wire connected to the right side of the overload protector (A1).
• Connect the white wire to the switch in terminal 3. Next pull more of the black wire through for easier connection to the terminals. Pull the black, white, green wires of motor through the other hole of switch cover.
• Connect the black motor wire to switch in terminal 2. Connect the white motor wire to switch in terminal 4.
• At the grounding logo below switch mounting hole, connect the two green ground lead wires to the steel side panel with the nuts, bolts and washers. Tighten the bolts.
• Attach the switch cover (Z) to the steel cabinet with nuts, bolts and washers, and tighten the cable bushing (AA) by hand. (Figure 14)

WARNING LABELS:

• B1:  ALWAYS KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM BLADE.
• B2: NEVER INSERT YOUR HAND INTO GRINDER INTAKE
• B3: KEEP HANDS A SAFE DISTANCE FROM THE TRANSMISSION SHAFT WHEN REMOVING THE GRINDER.

ASSEMBLING THE TABLE, FENCE & PUSHER

WARNING : ALWAYS turn the product OFF and disconnect from the power supply before attaching or removing any of the parts/accessories.

Remove the four socket screws from the table support as described on Page 7 (Figure 3). Then, from the left front side of the machine, hold the table in both hands and guide it up onto the two table guide wheels (BB) on that side. The wheels should fit the rails which are already attached to the underside of the table. Guide the table across the top of the machine to the guide wheels on the opposite side. Once the table is in place, reattach the table support. (Figure 15)

The fence (CC) and pusher (DD) have predetermined spaces for attachment to the table. The fence attaches to the side, the pusher attaches to the end. Using socket screws, attach the fence and pusher to their respective areas. (Figure 16)

CUTTING MEAT

• ALWAYS wash all parts with a gentle soap, before and after use – NEVER using a dishwasher.
• ALWAYS turn the machine OFF and allow blade to come to a complete stop before removing the cut meat. Repeat this process until finished.
  • Proper blade tension in important, both for optimum cutting and safety. There should be no flexibility with the blade.
  • For best results chilled or slightly frozen meats make uniform cutting easier, however,
  • NEVER cut completely frozen meat as it may damage the blade.
• ALWAYS check to make sure the blade is sharp, as dull blades lead to breakage, resulting in flying debris and possible injury to the user or bystanders.
  • Pay attention to the feel of the cut to know if the blade is sharp. If you have to apply force to feed the meat into the blade to cut, then you should replace the blade with a NEW sharp blade.
  • NEVER use a re-sharpened blade with this product.
• ALWAYS wear protective clothing and eye wear when using or near the product in operation.
• Place the meat on the stainless steel table and position in between the saw blade in front (EE, out of picture), the pusher (FF), and the fence (GG) on the left.

NOTE : The fence and the pusher have adjusting knobs (HH) allowing you to adjust the placement of both, depending on the size of meat. (Figure 17) Adjust the vertical placement of the Blade Guard (II) so there is a maximum 1/2″ space between it and the top of the meat to be cut. To adjust the Blade Guard, loosen the knob (JJ) on the Blade Guard and raise or lower it to expose more or less of the blade. Once in the desired position, tighten the knob.

NOTE : There is a flat side on the Guide Post (KK) that must face the knob to work properly. (Figure 18)

Turn the Power On using the O/— switch (—). Allow the blade to reach full speed. With one hand on the pusher and the other on the fence, push the table forward into the rotating blade, careful to keep your hands out of the path of the blade
